For students it is now the time of year where final papers, exams, and dreams of the holiday season are becoming in close reach. However, that means that for the time being most students are utterly swamped at the moment, which usually means that paying attention to what we eat goes out the window at this time of year but this doesn’t have to be the case! Next time you go to grab a bag of unhealthy potato chips why not try some healthy chips made from either apples or kale! How delicious does that sound for a study snack?
To make the apple chips all you need is:
– 2 apples
– And if you choose to add a little bit of sweetness, you can add 2tbsp of sugar and 1 tsp of
cinnamon (they taste great either way!).
1. Heat oven to 200 F.
2. Slice your apples into thin slices then place on a baking sheets with parchment paper.
3. If you choose to use sugar or cinnamon sprinkle it on top of the apple slices.
4. Let them bake for 2 hours. (You have the time, you’re reading notes anyway!)
To make the kale chips you will need
– ½ pound of kale
– 2 tsp quality olive oil
– A pinch of salt for flavour
1. Heat oven to 375 F.
2. Tear the leaves from the steams into chip sized pieces
3. Places the leaves on a baking sheet
4. Drizzle on the olive oil and sprinkle the salt
5. Bake for approximately 8 minutes or until the leaves are crispy
Now snack and enjoy the energy boost to keep studying!
